Decorations for Jesus

Here it is a time when we see more emphasis on taking God/Jesus out of the world and yet I love that the world decorates for Jesus' birthday. It seems that all of our differences end for the celebration of the birth of Jesus. Whether prophet, Son of God, or Jewish boy, all of us want to celebrate His Birthday with great fanfare. Look at all of the lights, the ribbons, the greenery and bows, the music, the gift wrapping.
Is it possible, that the gifts we give to one another are really our desire to give something back to this baby who is the salve to our human suffering and our hope for an eternity of joy. Joyful is this season of celebration and grateful am I that everyone decorates for world is more beautiful.
